Chairman Shiver stated the question that Member Mike Sims be
replaced on the Planning and Zoning Commission due to lack of
attendance as mentioned in the Planning and Zoning Commission
Bylaws. Member Weeks made the motion, Member Bond seconded. The
motion carried unanimously.
The Board of City Commissioners will need to be notified that the
Planning and Zoning Commissioners need a replacement for Mr. Sims.
First Alternate: Tanya Miller should fill Sims vacancy as a
permanent member.
Chairman Shiver stated that the Board will miss Mike Sims.
Member Bond commented that Sims was an asset to the Board, and
would like for him to consider serving again on the Board at some
point in time when he is able.
Bond questioned if the Board had determined a Quorum? Chairman
Shiver confirmed that the Alternates were filling in for absent
Members, therefore, a Quorum was made.
Bond questioned Planning Director Behrens on setback requirements
that were brought up during a Planning and Zoning Commission
Meeting some time ago. Older parcels around the downtown area are
being denied permits because of new setback requirements. Member
Bond asked if anything had been done on setback issues? Behrens
stated that nothing has been done on this and that he would check
with Staff for information, check on the Code requirements and
possibly work toward a solution to add to the Code. Bruce asked
Member Bond to give him a call with specific information on the
property owner she spoke of that had a problem with the City
requirements.
Planning Director Behrens stated that 28 petitions for
Annexation /Initial Zoning had been filed in the Planning Department
as of last week. The New Business item that was pulled on this
Agenda will have a new meeting date for Planning and Zoning.
Currently the new date is unknown. The 28 petitions will be broken
up into two evenings with 14 petitions discussed each night.
Member Weeks questioned the status of the Rail -to -Trail program.
